Swelling In Right Hand, Headache, Flu. Should I Meet A Doctor?
3 days back i noticed some swelling in my right hand, but didn't pay much attention to it. The following day i woke up with a headache & swollen left side of my face with the swelling in right hand still there. Next day again the same thing happened & even today, but minus the headache now. Also, i've been having flu for almost 5 days now. Is it something serious? Should i book an appointment with the doctor?

Hi,
The swelling needs to be examined and some blood tests need to be done. Please see a doctor as soon as possible.
